While the focus of fans up and down the country is very much on the World Cup, the transfer merry-go-round never stops spinning.
A fresh raft of reports on the continent claim Liverpool are scouring Europe for recruits in midfield and attack with a view to midseason recruitment in the January transfer window. Among their reported targets is Juventus centre-forward Dusan Vlahovic, who has scored seven goals this season and arrived in Turin in a £63m transfer from Fiorentina at the start of the year.
Speaking of the Florence club, one of their in-demand midfielders is also said to be on the Reds' radar as they explore alternatives to Jude Bellingham, who remains Liverpool's priority transfer target but commands a huge price tag.
